HYBRID ADVANTAGES

A toothed hybrid, showing very good adaptability and yield stability.
Fast drying out correlates with high grain/stem yields
Responds favourably to intensive techniques with very good results in different soil and climatic conditions.
Excellent overlap between flowering and ripening.
Very high yield potential for its ripeness group.
Flexible - safe - productive
Simple, toothed hybrid with yield potential >14,000 kg/ha

RECOMMENDED DENSITY

Non-irrigated 55 000 - 60 000 plants/ha
